Non-Contact Linear Measurement Sensor

The Orbit LT laser triangulation system supports quality control in precision manufacturing where individual part verification is required.

SOLARTRON METROLOGY — an Ametek Inc. unit — introduced a non-contact linear measurement sensor with a wide range of available outputs. The Orbit LT laser triangulation system is designed to support quality control in high-volume precision manufacturing applications requiring verification of every part.

Adding a non-contact capability allows Solartron to meet the needs of manufacturers of sterile or delicate products, as well as items that might be scratched by traditional touch probes. Soon, it said it will introduce models with higher accuracy and speed for more demanding applications.

Orbit LT sensors can be connected with other Solartron probes via its Orbit network or the newer Orbit ACS (automation and control system.)
